Anthropic's frontier AI workspace powered by Claude 5.5 for agentic coding, analysis, and nuanced writing.
Combines frontier Claude Opus 5.5 and high-speed Sonnet 5.5 with configurable extended thinking, up to 1M-token context windows, and 128K-token outputs.
Pro, Max, and Team Premium plans bundle Claude Code for autonomous command-line software engineering, test execution, and repository-wide refactoring.
Renders live interactive web apps, visualizations, spreadsheets, and formatted PowerPoint decks in a dedicated workspace panel alongside the chat.
Grounds conversations in shared project knowledge bases and connects directly to local filesystems, GitHub, Slack, and internal databases via MCP.

Turn PDFs, Office files and images into clean Markdown for AI workflows
Handles PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLS/XLSX, HTML, CSV/TSV, JSON, XML, TXT, EPUB, IPYNB, pasted tables, public URLs and PNG/JPG/WebP images in one workflow.
Supported files convert in the browser for on-device privacy, while richer or server-only formats use the self-hosted MarkItDown service. The path is labelled before you run a file.
Start with free Local OCR in the browser, then escalate to High-Accuracy AI OCR for scanned PDFs, dense tables, totals and formulas that ordinary OCR mangles.
Headings, tables, lists, links, inline formatting and code blocks survive conversion where the source exposes them, so output drops into RAG indexes and knowledge bases with minimal cleanup.
